| first chorus
|
| i blotted your happy school days,
|
| i’m sorry i caused you this pain,
|
| i’ll ask god to forgive me and to guide me always,
|
| for i blotted your happy school days.
|
| the teacher was watchin' with a wondering eye,
|
| she noticed your anguish and pain,
|
| she knew it would hurt you to have sympathy,
|
| with a heart that was breakin' in pain.
|
| repeat first chorus
|
| i have all the notes that you wrote to me,
|
| i’ve folded and kept them with care,
|
| they’re all put away to be touched no more,
|
| to save as a memory so dear.
|
| when i passed by your coffin to take my last look,
|
| i placed my last kiss on your brow,
|
| i know you’re in heaven with friends that are dear,
|
| and i know that i’ll meet you up there.
|
| second chorus
|
| for i blotted your happy school days,
|
| i’m sorry i caused you this pain,
|
| but i’ll ask god to forgive me and to guide me always,
|
| for i blotted your happy school days. |
